Email of: 9 April 2009
Dear Keith
Thankyou for your e-mail of 2 April requesting an extension to the
Woolooga to Cooroy South Transmission Line and Cooroy South Substation
Project Draft EIS submission period. We acknowledge that this request
has come through from you in your role as Acting Coordinator of PAGE.As you are aware, information on the targeted release date and extended
submission period, has been publicly available since late 2008. This
information has stated a targeted release of the Draft EIS for public
comment by first quarter 2009 and a doubling of the comment period from
three to six weeks. A three week comment period is the minimum
statutory requirement.Following consideration by the project team and in line with the above
information, I must advise that we are unable to accommodate your
request for an extension of time.Yours sincerely
Save Eumundi Team is a group of people who are keen to see our environment protected and insisting that the Queensland State Government and its agencies (like Powerlink) consider viable alternatives rather than the business as usual approach to electricity generation and transmission.
